Whenever you're ready, Connie! This one is all yours!

Since we are starting a new year, let's read new books. For the January challenge, read any books with an original publication date of 2015 or 2016. Have fun!

Stephanie, if you want this in a separate discussion, let me know how to set that up.

What about books that are released this month? My favourite author released a book today.

Absolutely! It doesn't get any "newer" than that!

how is the point system for the monthly reads, is that also 1 point per book up until 5 points?

Monthly specials are one point per book with no limit. Read as many as you like!
